very worried Murphy doing the right thing will cost him in an election year

 

I'll be so stoked if he drops out of the governor race, we get a pro-Cannabis Dem for a governor, and then he gets crushed in the Senate race for something like this. Unfortunately I think there's a very good chance he could win. Hassan's popularity has gone down a lot and she's always voting along with republicans. Honestly can't stand either of our senators here.

 

His approval rating is still quite good so I'm cautiously optimistic that he'll be fine. But idk, I guess if he keeps being strict more people could turn on him

 

Super cool the giant orange home improvement store I work at part time is doing away with masks for customers and employees on Wednesday! Awesome!

 

Will employees be allowed to wear masks if they want to...?

 

yeah I’m still going to wear one. It says only vaccinated people are allowed to be maskless but we can’t ask anyone to prove that they’re vaccinated.

 

My history of American politics is patchy af, but I had no idea HW was so popular. What was that all about?

 

Coward

 

probably the Gulf War

 

My father (super liberal) and my stepfather (very conservative) both really loved him. Idk if they could tell me why.

 

As a kid, I knew George HW for “nagonnadoit” and that he was the silly neighbor on “The Simpsons.” Also that the Gulf War must have been good if it had its own trading cards.

 

If Yang actually blows that lead it’s gonna be so funny

 

I miss Ross Perot

canifinish? canifinish?!

 

Does Your Member Of Congress Vote With Or Against Biden?

FiveThirtyEight has finally added the feature tracking how closely congress votes with or against Biden

 

Pretty awesome

 

This is precisely why i say “actually” lol

 

Damn and I was told the cdc guidance change wasn’t a big deal
